My name is Judy Lee. I took care of Grace while she was in assisted living. She was so sweet and always quick to offer kind words. I loved Charlie Brown and took care of him for Grace as well. When it was time for Grace to move. I became Charlie’s caretaker in my home. Charlie is doing well and even has a friend! Charlie still whistles the sound of Graces alarm clock!
Miss Grace you will be so very missed.
Love always,
Your friend,
Judy
